Switching Off Traction Control
If the vehicle is stuck in snow, mud or sand, and seems to lose engine
power, switching off the Traction Control feature of the AdvanceTrac
with RSC system may be beneficial because the wheels are allowed to
spin. This will restore full engine power and will enhance momentum
through the obstacle. To switch off the Traction Control feature press the
AdvanceTrac with RSCЉOffЉ button. Full features of the AdvanceTrac
with RSC system can be restored by pressing the AdvanceTrac with
RSC “Off” button again or by turning off and restarting the engine.
If you switch off the Traction Control, the sliding carЉ icon
will
illuminate steadily. Pressing the AdvanceTrac with RSC “Off” button
again will turn off the “sliding car” icon
.
In R (Reverse), ABS and the Engine and Brake Traction Control features
will continue to function; however, ESC and RSC are disabled.

Trailer Sway Control
Your vehicle may be equipped with trailer sway control. When properly
equipped, trailer sway control will use the vehicle’s AdvanceTrac with
RSC system to detect and help reduce trailer sway by applying brake
force at individual wheels and, if necessary, by reducing engine power.
WARNING: Trailer sway control does not prevent a trailer from
swaying, it mitigates the sway from increasing once it has
occurred. If you are experiencing trailer sway it is likely that the trailer
is improperly loaded for the correct tongue weight or the speed of the
vehicle and trailer is too high. Pull the vehicle-trailer over to a safe
location to check the trailer weight distribution and tongue load and
reduce speed to a safe level while towing. If trailer sway is
experienced, SLOW DOWN.
